before i start, no one come at me with the "don't script trauma" lecture. i know how it works. my dr, my problem. mind your own, thanks.
so, i lived in smallville from the age of 5 to 15, but gotham is where shit really got crazy.
we moved away to begin with because my dad wanted to be away from the crime family bullshit, but my mom ended up landing an opportunity to work at lexcorp. and they wanted her specifically at the building in gotham. dad obviously wasn't eager about it, but he loved my mom enough to go anyway since she really wanted to take the job.
i think i was about 16/17 when a gang war between falcone and maroni started up, and my dad got caught in the crossfire just 'cause we had the last name. my mom and i had some police watching over us for the remainder of that whole thing. then, i was 18 when my mom ended up dying in a lab accident at lexcorp.
safe to say, i had plenty beef with maroni and luthor after this shit.
i ended up turning to my great uncle – carmine falcone. joined the crime family. lots of in between i haven't scripted out, but i got training from deadshot, which was pretty expensive, but well worth it. other training for mixed martial arts and such to the side. i was a busy girl.
the mask got put on when i was 20. at first, it wasn't about saving people. it was about revenge. making moved against maroni i couldn't make as a falcone without starting another war. but there were a few points i had less selfish moments. i have stepped away from a chance to save someone crying for help.
that aside... the night i met red hood is the same night batman first confronted me. if it wasn't for him, i probably would've gotten my ass handed to me, honestly. of course, he only did this for the chance to have his own chat with me about what i've been doing afterwards.
so i ended up working under red hood, getting more training from him, a while before the outlaws came to be. but it did feel significantly different after arsenal joined us. then starfire, too.
i haven't really scripted many in between things (apart from at least two incidents where tim kicks my ass) or when jason comes around to rejoining his family. i'm not sure i will script much of that, just let things progress as they will.
it does take time for me to adjust to the batfam, and dick is actually a big part of it, making efforts to include me in things work related or not.
there's also a later point where i stay in blüdhaven and help him in his city while also getting a little extra training from nightwing himself. it's a pretty great time, apart from yk, the not great times. he's such a great big brother figure to have.
i think that's about all i have so far. apart from one point going with roy to star city and helping green arrow with a thing, which is vague scripting, but i don't mind being vague about things. i know thing will work out and stay interesting. um. yeah, also a point somewhere in there constantine comes to gotham, because gang, i gotta meet him.
i love my vague plot points.
